Bacteria
Extracellular

implicated in xylan, the major component of hemicellulose degradation

2018

Tsukamurella

Actinomycetota

Bacteria

This genus was identified as dominant in intensively feeding second-stage larvae and suggests a mechanism by which L2 larvae might process cellulose.

2018

Bacteria

Posses cellulolytic activity and antimicrobial activity against silkworm pathogens

2018

Acromyrmex

Hymenoptera

Bacteria

involved in the breakdown of arginine

2018

Pseudomonas

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Pseudomonas may also play a role in the breakdown of plant defence biomolecules produced by the rice host in response to the gall midge infestation

2017

Bacillus sp.

Bacillota

Bacteria
Extracellular

The isolate has cellulolytic activity and can hydrolyze CMC, avicel, cellulose and sawdust with broad temperature and pH stability

Involved in cellulose degradation

2017

Pantoea sp.

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Pantoea sp. showed active decarboxylase activities while poor deaminase activities in the presence of various amino acids

degrading  ellulose and xylan

2017

Bacteria

activity of cellulose and hemicellulose

Bacteria

activity of cellulose and hemicellulose, degrade CMC, xylan, and pectin

2017

Enterobacter cloacae

degrading sugar

2017

Bacteria
Extracellular

a number of genes encoding detoxification and digestive enzymes, indicating a potential association with the ability of B. oleae to cope with green olives. In addition, a number of biological processes seem to be activated in Ca. E. dacicola during the development of larvae in olives, with the most notable being the activation of amino-acid metabolism.
